Description
Ground floor
• Pittams Farm has been in the same family ownership for many years. It is believed to date back to the early 19th Century, when the main symmetrical ashlar stone front of the farmhouse was constructed.
• In the 1970’s a modern side extension was added, which provides a unique blend of period and 1970’s architecture. An additional rear extension was added in the 1980’s in the same style.
• The property now requires some updating and modernising, but will create a very special family home.
• The entrance hall, with quarry floor tiles, gives access to the sitting room, with fireplace, and the dining room.
• The kitchen/family/garden room offers open plan living, and is located to the rear of the property, being part of the original property and the garden room in the 1970’s extension. It has French doors to the garden and uninterrupted countryside views.
• Completing the ground floor is a walk-in pantry, a good sized utility/boot room and cloakroom/wc.
First floor
• On the first floor in the 1980's part of the property the principal bedroom has a walk in dressing room, and ensuite bathroom, with access to a private balcony.
• A guest bedroom in the 1970’s part of the property has large picture windows overlooking the garden and open countryside.
• There are two further double bedrooms, and a small single bedroom/study, along with a family bathroom.
Gardens and grounds
• The property benefits from a detached studio building, which offers potential conversion to an annexe, with a lapsed planning consent (ref: S/2006/0618/P 2006 for ‘conversion of existing outbuilding to ancillary living accommodation’).
• There are also a range of outbuildings, stables, carport, with gravelled parking for several cars.
• The gardens and grounds include a mature walled garden with a vegetable garden, traditional greenhouse, established planting and a mix of specimen trees, shrubs and flowering borders.
